Study, Study, Study! |
Every year, we end up participating in some sort of research study for patients and families living with type 1 diabetes. With deep consideration (because we are parenting young children), the majority of our study input has been relatively non-invasive and taken very little time or effort on our part. Regardless, I always feel like it is part of our responsibility to help where we can. Maybe, just maybe, by doing so we are stepping the greater DOC closer towards that CURE we all want.
If your clinic or endocrinologist office does not offer or provide information on current type 1 diabetes research studies, you can click HERE to see a full listing of what is out there right now. The list is broken down by state and country - yes, a global effort is underway to help us get closer to a CURE.
Even if you decide not to participate in anything (which is perfectly fine too!), it might make you feel a little bit happier to know that science really is working on solving the many mysteries of having type 1 diabetes. Personally, whenever I hear of things like this, I get sooo excited and so do my girls!
If you are participating in a research study, please post a little overview of what it is and what the goal hopes to become in achieving the final results.
And,
THANK YOU FOR HELPING ALL OF OUR LOVED ONES LIVING WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES!
